NorthShore DynaDry Bladder Control Incontinence Pads for Women - 7" x 14" | Trial Pack of 4 | LL Medico
Skip until the brand discloses waterproofing chemistry, incontinence pads routinely use PFAS-based water barriers.
NorthShore's DynaDry pads are marketed as waterproof bladder-control products, but the brand provides no public disclosure of coating materials or PFAS use. Incontinence pads commonly rely on Teflon-family coating or PFAS-based water-resistant treatments.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
